Outcomes following the implantation of cardioverter-defibrillator for primary prevention in transposition of the great arteries after intra-atrial baffle repair: a single-centre experience

Abstract: Atrial arrhythmias were the most common cause for ICD shocks in a primary prevention population, while ventricular tachycardia was infrequent. The association between elevated end-diastolic pressures and the occurrence of arrhythmias demonstrates the close mechano-electrical relationship in D-TGA and may be an important predictor of arrhythmic events.

“…In the first series, 1 ICD discharge occurred in 12 patients with primary prevention ICD indication during a follow-up of 3.5 years (15). The other was especially remarkable for a massive burden of inappropriate shocks, reporting 34 ICD shocks in 11 patients with only one true VT/VF event (16). In the present study, ventricular tachyarrhythmias with appropriate ICD therapy occurred in 64% of patients, more than doubled compared to previous reports.…”

“…Patients with TGA exhibit a high burden of supraventricular tachycardias (19). ICD carriers are therefore at risk for inappropriate shocks: In one series of dTGA patients with ICDs implanted for primary prevention, the ratio of inappropriate shocks to appropriate therapies was as high as 10:1 (16). Although the proportion of inappropriate shocks for supraventricular tachycardia was lower in our cohort, they still pose a relevant problem.…”

Die dann entstehende Kaskade mit zunehmend reduzierter myokardialer Perfusion und Oxygenation, hypotonem Blutdruck, progredienter Herzinsuffizienz und elektrischer Instabilität hat insbesondere angesichts einer eingeschränkten Ventrikelfunktion ein hohes Potenzial, die Degeneration einer schnell übergeleiteten AT in Kammerflimmern zu verursachen [4]. Alle atrialen und ventrikulären Tachykardien können sich erstmalig auch mit einer Synkope Verschiedene Antiarrhythmika wurden in der Vergangenheit für die Akuttherapie atrialer und ventrikulärer Tachykardien eingesetzt, mit begrenztem Erfolg und sogar teilweise mit resultierender Steigerung der Sterblichkeitsrate (Chinidin, Disopyramid, Sotalol) [7].…”

“…Morbidität und Letalität bei EMAH werden gleichsam von Arrhythmien und Herzinsuffizienz dominiert. Neben Sinusknotendysfunktion und AV-Blockierungen stellen tachykarde Arrhythmien typische Spätfolgen nach Korrektur eines AHF [2,3,4] dar und sind seltener durch kongenitale Substrate verursacht. Die antiarrhythmische medikamentöse Behandlung bewirkt gerade im Langzeitverlauf meist keine ausreichend verlässliche Reduktion der Arrhythmielast und zeigt ein oft inakzeptables Nebenwirkungsprofil [5,6].…”

“…Patients with d-transposition of the great arteries (d-TGA) after atrial correction carry a high risk of sudden cardiac death due to malignant arrhythmia 3–5 . In these patients, transvenous ICD implantation presents unique challenges and is associated with a high risk of lead failure 6 , 7 . Subcutaneous ICD implantation may be an alternative in this population, but some evidence suggests, that the shock efficacy may be lower in these patients 8 …”
